FAIRFAX, VA, June 26, 2015 (Newswire.com) - For the marketing and consulting services firm, attracting young and energetic talent is the key to success.

As such, Boom Marketing will be offering a number of opportunities through partnerships with local colleges.
“Internships are excellent arrangements for all parties involved,” Whitney stated. “They help us find the best and most passionate young people to join our team. Doing so is necessary for us to constantly infuse our services with new perspectives. Of course, we also offer a lot to the individuals interning as well, giving them valuable boosts to their careers.”

She pointed out that internships are excellent means of gaining real world experience for students and recent graduates. This leads to learning new skills, honing knowledge of content learned in class, and building greater confidence. For many interns, it is their first exposure to the office environment, which can be extremely beneficial when trying to land a future job.
“We hire many of our interns when they graduate,” Whitney said. “Even the ones who don’t come to join our team will have a lot more to show on their resumes. They can also earn some money and gain college credits while they complete the program. We offer more than the usual internship here at Boom Marketing.”
Boom Marketing’s President Reveals Benefits to Their Internship Program
According to Whitney, the Boom Marketing internships have more to offer than most other such programs. For example, individuals who intern at the firm will have the opportunity to travel from time to time either on road campaigns or to conferences and getaways. This includes both domestic and international trips alongside many of the firm’s seasoned professionals.
“We also train our interns in all our innovative techniques,” she added. “They will learn a number of the latest methods for promoting brands. We don’t ask our interns to spend all their time getting coffee and picking up dry cleaning. They do really meaningful work that actually makes an impact on our firm. We want it to be a truly mutually beneficial arrangement.”
